Brilliant. One of the best horror movies in recent years

Rating: Null/10 (31 March 2004)

*Possiable minor spoilers*
It is really one of the best horror movies in recent years and thank god. The nineties were a dark age for horror for a while there wasn't anything then a reasonably good horror flick comes out, strikes it big and now were plagued by a bunch of crappy carbon copies and it was like that for years until 00' rolled around then things started looking up. We got movies like Ginger snaps, Dog soldiers, Cabin fever and of course 28DL. I wouldn't hesitate to call this one of the best horror movies in the past oh say 15 years. The directing is excellent poetic and beautiful (which can be said about the entire film) the score and writing were both just as good the performances were all great. And it was genuinely scary some very intense scenes and very well executed suspense. And very much like Romero's Dead trilogy the real enemies are not the infected (there not zombies) but the other survivors.
This film owes quite a bit to the DEAD trilogy and 28DL pays ample tribute.
So I say watch this if you want a thought provoking powerful and very frightening film.
